Question: Which Orlando attraction, founded in 1949, bills itself as the Alligator Capital of the World?
Answer: Gatorland
Owen Godwin opened Gatorland long before Disney came to Orlando. It quickly became a classic roadside attraction, showcasing Florida’s most famous reptile. Visitors can watch gator feedings, zipline above the swamp, or pose at the iconic giant gator-mouth entrance. Despite Florida’s theme-park boom, Gatorland has held onto its old-Florida charm and continues to thrive.
